Fam,
Join us, policymakers, policy advocates, and organizers on October 26 at 1:00 PM PST/4:00 PM EST, for an important State & Local Policymaker Teach-In on the opportunity to bring the People’s Response Act home. During the teach-in, we will unveil two policy guides (one aimed at state legislators and the other at local elected officials) that provide a step-by-step process for how to advance non-carceral policies.
Learn how you can champion a new paradigm for public safety in your community, inspired by Black communities across the country who built the Vision for Black Lives. Sign up here: https://m4bl.link/PRAteachin
The People’s Response Act, sponsored by Representative Cori Bush (D-Mo) is the first piece of federal legislation that reflects the BREATHE Act, representing a major shift away from systems rooted in oppression that acutely harm Black communities.
Bring your ideas. Bring your experience. Bring your people. Sign up for this important teach-in and share this special invitation with your state and local policymaker contacts who have an interest in learning more about how to champion a new vision for community safety.
For any questions about this event, contact [email protected].
In solidarity,
Movement for Black Lives, Black Lives Matter, Color of Change, Civil Rights Corps, Essie Justice Group
